NetStaX EtherNet/IP Scanner DLL Kit

Version 5.4.0 Released December 1, 2023

Version 5.4.0 Released December 2, 2023 – CT20 Conformant 

Pyramid Solutions’ NetStaX™ EtherNet/IP™ Scanner DLL Kit (EIPS) allows you to quickly introduce conformant EtherNet/IP Scanner Class functionality to your PC-based products.

CIP Security EtherNet/IP DLLThe EIPS stack provides EtherNet/IP I/O Server, I/O Client, Message Server and message Client functionality.

It also provides a logical and manageable Application Programming Interface (API) for interfacing to your application code and utilizes the standard Windows TCP/IP stack, so it can originate as well as act as a target for EtherNet/IP connections and messages.

The EIPS Scanner Class protocol stack can originate a variety of I/O connections based on the user connection configuration set locally via the stack API or remotely over the network via the EIPS Connection Configuration Object (CCO). The CCO provides the interface necessary for software tools.

The EIPS comes with 12 months of download access to the latest version and built in phone / email tech support.

Additional service options are available to assist you with EtherNet/IP requirements, design, EIPS Stack Integration, pre-conformance testing and more.
